Reading the Bible can be confusing. After all, it is an ancient book of a collection of writings by about 40 people over a 1500-year span that details the plan of God through history, prophecy, parables, laws, observations and life guidance teachings. Some of the accounts of specific individuals featured in the Bible can come across as shrouded in mystery. Such is the case with the ending of the lives of Enoch, Moses and Elijah. The accounts of the deaths of these three faithful men can bring more questions than answers. What really happened to them? Was Enoch taken up to be with God? Why was the body of Moses hidden, and why did Satan seem to want it? Did Elijah really go to heaven in a fiery chariot? Moses and Satan Moses' death is recorded in Deuteronomy 34, where God Himself buried him in an unknown location. While this seems to be a very clearly stated end of his life, Jude 1:9 adds the unusual detail of Michael the archangel disputing with Satan over Moses' body, possibly to prevent the people of Israel from idolizing it. Elijah the prophet Elijah's departure in 2 Kings 2 is often misunderstood. Though taken up by a whirlwind with fiery chariots present, the Hebrew word for “heaven” often refers to the sky rather than God's dwelling place. Jesus' statement in John 3:13 confirms that no one ascended to God's heaven before him. Elijah may have been removed from prophetic service or died, but he was not taken to God's abode. Both Moses and Elijah appeared in The Mount of Transfiguration (Matthew 17, Mark 9, Luke 9) vision. This vision was NOT a literal resurrection of Moses and Elijah, as the Bible clearly defines death as the absence of life on any level. Jesus alone was transfigured, while Moses and Elijah symbolically represented the Law and the Prophets, pointing to Christ as the centerpiece of God's plan. Enoch "translated" Finally, in relation to Enoch, “God took him” (or "translated" him according to the King James Version). While many notions exist about Enoch never dying, careful reading of the scripture texts in question reveal that he did die and likely didn't know his death was coming. Examining these fascinating narratives reveals the allure of creating drama where there is none, as well as the dangers of scriptural misinterpretation. Instead of being imaginative, let's rely on the fact that God is in complete control of everything we simply don't know!

In this Bible Story, Paul stands before King Agrippa, telling his story and facing trial. Agrippa is pleased with Paul, but does not set him free.

Today's question, "How should I read the Bible?" is often asked by new believers, church going people who've never read the Bible and those questioning what they've heard about the Bible. It is often stated this way:     ⁃    Which is the best Bible translation?     ⁃    Where should I start as I begin reading?     ⁃    What schedule should I follow?     ⁃    Where can I find extra help and resources? And the often not asked question, but should be asked:     ⁃    What are the essential things to remember? The Bible is the Word of God and is self authenticating, speaking to every generation. There are difficult parts and very clear parts. The Scriptures speak the Truth from God, and they are practical and very beneficial. Which translation? There is no perfect translation. Each translation works to capture what was originally written down to convey it's original meaning without translating word for word.     1.    New International Version  (NIV) - seeks to follow a literal translation      2.    English Standard Version (ESV)  - emphasizes word for word translation     3.    King James Version (KJV) - a favorite for centuries - a language different than today's modern day language, and is easily memorized     4.    New Living Translation (NLT) - seeks to convey the thoughts of Scripture versus a word for word translation - more easily understood     5.    New King James Version (NKJV) - attempts to keep the text and rhythm of the King James Version but in more modern language Pastor shares an example of each translation using Matthew 5:17. Where to start?     1.    Start with one of the Gospels (1 of the first 4 books of the New Testament) where we meet Jesus. Listen to what He says.     2.    Matthew - written from a Hebrew perspective - Prophesied Messiah.     3.    Mark - shortest of the 4 - speaks in dramatic terms and talks about the active Son of God - Mark offers lots of details.     4.    Luke (and Acts) - Jesus as the Savior of the Nations - Luke has a heart for the desperate.     5.    John - an insiders view of Jesus' ministry and teaching and covers what's not covered in the other gospels. John's focus is the Deity of Jesus Christ. What Schedule?     1.    Find a time that works for you     2.    Consider your season of life - and don't let the enemy trip you up or discourage you     3.    A place to meet with God - it is beneficial to have a place to sit down and reflect on what God is saying in His Word.     4.    Read a section of Scripture - important to listen to God as He speaks to us in sections: chapter, book.     5.    Select a plan that will work:     •    Chapter a day, one book at a time     •    Gospel chapter and a Psalm every day     •    Bible in a year - 3+ chapters a day     •    Foundational books: Genesis, Exodus, Luke, Acts, John, Romans, Ephesians     •    Read a section of scripture out loud     •    Listen to the Bible with various platforms Where to find help?     1.    Use a study Bible - each of the suggested Bible translations mentioned at the beginning have a study Bible available.     2.    BibleGateway.com a great place to go to take a look at the Bible in a multitude of translations and also a great way to listen to the Bible - completely free.     3.    AwakeUsNow.com we have everything available free of charge: Sunday services, Tuesday Bible class, Bible in a Year, TV and radio and podcasts. What are the Essentials?     ⁃    Purpose - Read the Scriptures with the purpose of allowing God's word to be transformative in your life, for the purpose of wanting to encounter the Lord Jesus, the Heavenly Father and the Holy Spirit.     ⁃    Approach the Scriptures with Prayer - talk to the Author, ask Him what He wants to say to you. Look at your time in God's Word not as a class assignment but a time to draw close and closer to Him.     ⁃    Ponder what you are reading, think on what you are hearing God say to you in His Word.     ⁃    Practice what you read and learn from the stories you read. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work. God desires that we know Him, that we experience His goodness and forgiveness in Christ, that we experience the power of His Holy Spirit and that we be used by Him to be a blessing to others. He desires we share the news of the only One who can save. Jesus, our crucified, risen Lord who is coming back and coming soon.  May we encounter Him daily in His Word. Now What?

If you've ever read a translation like the King James Version, you know when you get to the word “patience,” the older English translation will use the word “longsuffering.” This is because the Greek word for patience literally means to suffer a long time, which doesn't sound very promising.  What it's saying is that patience is the trait by which you are able to bear up under difficulty without giving up or giving in to bitterness. There are two kinds of patience: there's patience under difficult circumstances and there's patience with people. And Romans 12 is a remarkable passage about how to be patient and gracious to people who are opposing you.  This passage gives us 1) a principle of showing patience, 2) some ideas on how to practice it, and 3) how to get the power to do it. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on May 2, 2010. Series: The Real Signs of the Spirit. Scripture: Romans 12:9-21.

In this Bible Story, we witness the tragic yet noble death of James. He would be the first apostle to become a martyr, and he would not be the last. As persecution of the church increases, so does the risk of imprisonment. Yet death is no match for Jesus, nor is it a threat to those who believe in him. This story is inspired by Acts 12.

These Christians were the only thing standing between him and power. James, one of the Lord’s twelve disciples, remained in the city preaching about the restoration that Jesus brings. While he was preaching, Herod sent guards to kill him where he stood. A public death sent a message from Herod that he is King, not Jesus. But this persecution could not stop Jesus or His followers. Even when Peter was captured and imprisoned, God made a way for him to escape death.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

Because of this, many believers scattered across the Roman Empire setting as far as Cyprus and Antioch for safety. In these cities, the gospel began to break out from being a Jewish-only message, now Greeks and Hellenists were receiving Jesus too! The attitude of the believers in the city was so helpful that people began to refer to these followers as little Christs, a name that has stuck with us for generations.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.
